Watched most of a new Golf Documentary on Netflix the last few days called Full Swing .
Very interesting and better than I thought it would be
So don't know Tennis Players or F1 Drivers or who won what but there's also 2 documentaries on Netflix about those 2 sports
Are they any good...are there any other good sport documentaries
Any sports films you remember and like

I love sports, and would watch any of them given the chance. But none of the recent sports documentaries kept me engaged.
Watched bits of Michael Jordan, and Senna. Enjoyed Ronnie Colemans a bit.
But the best one was Icarus. Really good. |

The Last Dance & Legacy: The True Story of the LA Lakers are good basketball documentaries.
The Dawn Wall, Free Solo & 14 Peaks for climbing.
Any One Of Us was a good watch too.

Icarus was very good and Senna was just amazing, went to see it in the cinema twice, by myself. Might be biased tho with him being a hero of mine  |

"I really enjoyed senna. It's F1. And I'm not a sporty person at all"
Senna is one of the best sport documentaries ever made imho.
Its superb. But then again - the subject was an incedible human being |

Rush I'd good film about lauda v hunt rivalry in F1 in 70s. Diego maradona documentary is also very good. Same director as senna doc. Some very good boxing documentaries out there. Bruno v tyson. Foreman. Am counting down the days until drive to survive is released |

Really enjoyed drive to survive. Well worth a watch. On prime the all or nothing documentaries are brilliant. From soccer, nfl to all blacks. Great behind the scenes. Can't wait for the Netflix series following the 6 nations this year. Should be a great watch. |

As aleady said
The last dance
Icarus
Senna
Pantani - accidental death of a cyclist
Driven - the Billy Monger story
But my all time favourite is Road - the Joey Dunlop story... that is a truely remarkable story

Loads of excellent docu series
For "sport" movies, you can't go wrong with
Remember the Titans
Coach Carter
Friday night lights
Also the series Friday night lights is pretty good

Agree with some others already, Free solo, 14 peaks, Icarus. Road is phenomenal, Closer to the edge is another good road racing doc.
Not sure where you would find it but The Barkley Marathons is an incredible watch about the toughest ultramarathon in the world |

Especially have a really good selection of sports film/documentaries. They are called 30 for 30 obviously they centre on American sports both professional and college but they are very good.
Also on all4 there is some good documentaries of all sorts. |

Saw the espn 30 for 30 series mentioned here a few times and can't recommend it enough, most of the episodes are about sports and sports stars you'd have no interest in or never heard of but it's still so good. The special they did 2/3 years ago on lance Armstrong is brilliant.
